چکیده
A quantitative study was conducted to direct the design and development of a computerized system for bone age assessment (BAA) in University of Malaya Medical Center (UMMC). The aim is to develop a system to assist radiologists and doctors in obtaining the most accurate results in estimation of bone age. A primary analysis shows the current method used by UMMC radiologists for bone age assessment, their feedbacks, problems encountered and their opinions about new approach for BAA. Our study also extracts user requirements for designing and developing a computerized method for BAA.
